BREAK-ON Connective Processing

When processing a BREAK-ON attribute, the English processor applies the pre-processor codes to change the file data to intermediate format. It then uses the intermediate format to check for a change in data.

After checking the intermediate format, the processor uses the output conversion to produce the output format.

Processing

The following illustrates the general application of conversion codes to attribute values:

1. Data in stored format

2. Attribute 8 (pre-processor) processing produces

3. Data in intermediate format

4. Which is checked for a change in value

5. If value has changed, output conversion processing produces

6. Data in output format
